Bryan Singer has assembled a sprawling cast for his new X-flick, comprised of characters from both his old continuity and the one Mathew Vaughn brought to us with X-Men: First Class. But one actor from that movie who won't be joining former cast mates Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult and Jennifer Lawrence is Caleb Landry Jones - who did a pretty good job as Banshee, despite the whole not being Irish thing!

Caleb Landry Jones will NOT be back as Banshee in the next X-Men movie. Just spoke with the man and he confirmed for me.

There goes continuity being thrown out the window again, if they keep getting rid of previous characters I don't see how the film will do well. Plus that and the fact they are adding in these new mutant characters to the story which doesn't make any sense at all. To me this movie is close to it's final jump of the shark

I thought Banshee did a decent job. I enjoyed the movie as a whole except Angel. That bitch sucked ass. Im excited for DOFP, whether it gets good or bad ratings, anytime characters I read in comics as a child are on the big screen i'll gladly pay the $10.

But Wonderbread we can do the same thing with any CBM. You just seem to hate the MCU for its changes from the source material when no CBM has been perfect so far. Marvel and Nolan have made the right changes that translate perfectly on screen. Fox has not. Hell even Fox knows the mess they made, thats why they are using Time travel by means of whiping it all away and starting anew.
